Juniors Enter Pink Enchantment ' ' as Prom Who spiked the punch. Bill Briggs is all smiles for the camera while Jan Diring gets a better view over his shoulder. By the looks on these two faces, the conclusion can be drawn that the Prom was a complete success. One of the social highlights of high school years is the Junior Prom. This event, planned for early April, is looked forward to throughout the year. Planning for the Prom begins many months in advance. For the girls there are long anxious months in which to wonder whether that special guy is going to ask her to the Prom. The boys are having problems too, but theirs are of the opposite sort: which girl to ask? Will she go with me? The next problem that arises is the proper attire for the dance. For the girls a dress that is just right must be found! Hours upon hours are spent searching — ac- companied by all the little agonies that go with shopping: aching feet, jostling crowds, and splitting headaches. Finally, the dress is found. Having accomplished the major task, the minor accessories such as shoes, purse and hair style must be considered. As the girls are preparing themselves, the boys are making their arrangements, too. Corsages must be picked out to harmonize with the girl ' s dresses. After corsages are ordered; reservations must be secured at some restau- rant. Although going out to eat is not an absolute neces- sity, it seems to be a highly desirable, socially in thing to do. Finally the long awaited evening arrives. Proud parents take color pictures of their sons and daughters, to provide lasting memories. These pictures will be saved and cher- ished and looked back upon as remembrances of one of the most important events in their children ' s high school years. I 48
